Can't Get Enough

ombredress1

Today is Sunday and the weekend has officially started for me.  I had to work yesterday and it was just one of those really rough days.  Even though I'm exhausted, overworked, and underpaid, I try my best not to complain.  I feel lucky to have a job and to be doing something that services the community.  So instead, I'm going to tell you about this ridiculously cute ombre dress that I borrowed from Jessica of Midwest Muse :)

Dress- Jessica via Flock Together
Cardigan- Forever 21
Tights- Target
Shoes- Aldo
Necklace- Gift
Bracelets- Forever 21

I almost feel bad raiding Jessica's closet all the time but I just can't help it.  She has the cutest wardrobe and I find myself pining over so many of her outfits.  Even though there is about ten inches in height difference we somehow make each others wardrobes work.  The chest detail of this dress is gorgeous, but it was much more fitting on Jessica so I modified it by adding a cardigan.

  1. The colors look so different- interesting.

    I love how you changed things up- showing off the versatility of the dress- by adding that top.

  9. I would have NEVER known it was the same dress! Even though I love the chest detailing on it, I really love how it looks with the ruffled cardigan. I totally feel you now being pretty much exhausted all the time, I cannot wait for a break longer than 2 days!
